Mothers PC has speed and email problems, HJT log included.

Postby Aedh » Sat Jul 24, 2004 11:04 pm

She is having some issues with here email forwarding capabilitites that have our ISP blaming McAfee for, not to mention her PC moves at a snails pace. The email problem I will look at later but the speed issues make me think it's spybot/adware/virus related.

As of today I have installed and run Mozilla's Firefox, Ad-aware6, Spybot S&D, and HijackThis. Her virus software and windows is up-to-date. Below is her log from HJT.

Any comments would be appreciated.

Press Ctrl/Alt/Del and "End Task" or "End Process" on each of the following: (They may or may not be there)

Weatherbug.exe

Turn off System Restore. (Turn it back on after this is repaired and you've rebooted.) Close all other open Windows and have HiJackThis Fix:

Go to Control Panel / Add/Remove Programs and remove the following if they are there:

WeatherBug


Now delete these Folders or Files that are Highlighted: (You may need enable "Show all Files" and disable "Hide System Files" in Windows Explorer / Tools / Folder Options / View Tab) (You may have to boot to "Safe Mode" in order to delete some Files/Folders)

C:\Program Files\AWS\WeatherBug\Weather.exe



Now, empty all your TEMP Folders (WinXp has up to 4 of them) / Temporary Internet Files Folder and then empty your "Recycle Bin" and reboot.


Run HJT again and post a fresh logfile.
